I understand your sensitivity on the issue.

Still, try to understand that I was only talking about interest rates and why, in my opinion, they would be going up in the medium term - there is significant budget deficit in the US at present, and a prolonged war spending is not going to help it, which will eventually lead to increased interest rates to attract funds.

"War on half of the world" was of course not meant in the demographic sense.

I would be very interested to know how on earth you reached that conclusion as a result of what I have written. I was under the impression that this is a forum on the real estate market, rather than sentimental stuff on "9/11 and other atrocities". I feel for the victims of 9/11, as well as victims of all other tragedies in the history of humankind, but it just doesn't have anything to do with the subject here.
